Research Marketing Sprint – 30th April – 16th May

We are looking for T&R and T&R members to be involved in an upcoming Research Marketing Sprint from 30th April – 16th May 2025 where we are going to explore how we can collectively improve the marketing of the School’s research and disciplines internally and externally to support our brand and reputation.

 

As you might know, a sprint is an approach to working effectively with a small group of people dedicated to delivering specific outputs at pace over a period of two weeks (plus a three-hour pre-sprint planning session expected to take place on Monday 31st March 2025, 1 – 4pm). A sprint typically adds up to around 50% of your working week, in total.

 

We are aware that this may seem like a huge time commitment, but it’s an opportunity for you to be part of a genuine ‘task and finish’ team where you can contribute to developing solutions that have an immediate and positive impact on NUBS and the University. The sprint approach is a proven methodology with outcomes that have so far been really useful to both understand and potentially enhance the university’s operations and impact, so we do hope that you can make it.

 

If you would like to take part, please could let Kylie Byers Kylie.Byers@newcastle.ac.uk and Hannah Lynch hannah.Lynch@newcastle.ac.uk know by Wednesday 26th March. Alternatively, you can also let them know if you would prefer to be consulted as a key stakeholder instead .
